In the end, it was President Yamamori, me, and the owner of the hotel, Moriguchi. I lay on the couch and waited.Sometimes the Sandman would come suddenly, and the consciousness would follow away from me.But in the next moment, I will suddenly wake up again.When I tried to take a short nap, I would be woken up by nasty nightmares.I can only describe it as a very nasty dream, since I don't remember anything about the actual content. Time passed in this state, and the outside gradually turned white.We went out again when the hands of the living room clock reached five o'clock. "Dongzi!—Dongzi!——" Standing in the mist, I called her name as I moved forward.The surroundings were completely swallowed by silence, and my voice bounced back as if shouting at the ancient well, idling non-stop.

I feel the unease starting to attack my stomach.The pulse became faster and made me queasy several times.And the head still hurts. "Let's take a look at the back of the hotel!"

"Go back...President Yamamori..." I looked at his face. He gripped my shoulder a little harder. "Go back!" said a dark and heavy voice. At the same time, something suddenly and violently ran through my heart. "What's under the cliff... Fuyuko is down there, right?"

He didn't answer, just looked straight into my eyes.It's the same even if it's answered.I escaped from his grasp and ran towards the cliff. "do not go!" Leaving his voice far behind me, I climbed over the fence and looked down.The blue ocean, the white surf, the black rock walls—these things come into view in an instant. And Dongzi lying down. Dongzi sticks to the rock and looks like a small flower petal.The body remained motionless, letting the sea breeze blow. My consciousness seemed to be sucked away by the ocean. "Danger!" Someone supported my body.The sea and the sky turned around, and my feet lost weight...
